text: Washington, DC or Remote in the U.S.<p>I'm looking for a front-end web developer with experience building out single page Javascript applications for a 5 month project starting mid-August. You'd focus on front-end development in collaboration with a UI designer as well as a backend Rails developer who will be creating the required JSON API. Someone with some Angular.js experience would be ideal, but if you have a lot of experience with Backbone or Ember, that would work, too (we are not wedded to Angular).<p>We are all based in Washington, DC (so I would be great if you are here) but remote is OK. You must be authorized to work in the U.S.<p>If you are interested or would like more information, please email me at andy.fiedler@fiedlerconsulting.co. Please include a link to your profile, or a description of your experience/a resume.<p>Thanks!

text: Magento Dev | Switzerland or remote<p>I run a small web consulting agency that specializes in e-commerce. We mostly work with Magento and from time to time are just too swamped so we are looking for a skilled freelancer that knows the platform and would be willing to take some work of our hands. We are looking for a long-term partnership with varying workload. The tasks are strictly development related, no design skill necessary. The only requirements are long-term availability, understanding of GIT and clear communication.<p>Please email magento-dev@mobweb.ch and also include your Skype ID so we can chat directly. Also reference HN somehow so I can see that your email isn't recruiter spam. :)

text: remote<p>Experienced WebGL/OpenGL developer wanted for open source mapping project<p>The OpenLayers 3 open source web mapping project [1] is looking for experience WebGL developer for a short term contract to implement key features and to ensure that the project follows WebGL best practices.<p>Your responsibilities:
- implement the core renderer of styled 2D geospatial vector data (e.g. to render KML [2] and SLD [3]) in WebGL (JavaScript &#38; GLSL)
- contribute to architecture design decisions
- ensure that the project follows WebGL best practices<p>Contract:
- duration: initially 2-3 months part time, starting as soon as possible
- location: remote, but availability during European working hours is desirable<p>Your profile:
- must: experienced WebGL or OpenGL developer
- strongly desired: strong JavaScript skills, but skill in similar languages is OK
- bonus: experience working with geospatial data<p>To apply, and for more information:
- contact tom.payne@camptocamp.com
- include a link to your GitHub profile, or a CV and an example of your code if you do not have a GitHub profile<p>More information about the project and the position:
OpenLayers 3 is the next generation of open source mapping library. It’s equivalent to the JavaScript client part of Google Maps, but supports a much wider range of geospatial data sources and different map projections. The project includes three back-end renderers: WebGL (for advanced functionality), Canvas (when WebGL is not available) and DOM (for very old browsers). WebGL offers many exciting possibilities for the visualization of geospatial data, notably client-side rendering of large quantities of data, and richer interaction and analysis. For this position, you will be writing WebGL code (JavaScript &#38; GLSL) for 2D rendering of styled geospatial vector data. In the near future we plan to add 3D terrain support, and integration with Cesium [4] for virtual globe support is ongoing.<p>[1] <a href="http://ol3js.org/" rel="nofollow">http://ol3js.org/</a>
